Black Jack

Games / Black Jack


Black jack is played with 6 packs of 52 cards. The value of the cards are from 2 to 10, all the court cards have the value of 10, the ACE has a value of 1 or 11.

The Black jack table has seven betting fields. There can be four players playing on one field, but the total value of the table can not be higher that the table maximum. Each player can bet on all seven fields only in case that there are not already four players playing on that field. The field is controlled by the player sitting in front of it and all the other players, playing on that field, have to follow his decision (doubling, splitting, payout of Black Jack 1:1).

The game

The goal of the game is whether getting 21 points or to come as close as possible to it. The Black Jack is a combination of the first two cards with the value of 21 and it is paid 3:2. The Black Jack always wins if 21 is made with more than two cards. All the other winnings are paid 1:1. the dealer has to draw at 16 and stays at 17.

Three 7's:

Three sevens are a speciality of our casino'. If the box holder is dealt 21 points with 3 sevens, all players betting on the box collect one time amount of their bet from the bank. The three sevens remain in play. And so may win again.

Double:

If the first two cards on a box add up to 9, 10 or 11 points, the box holder may double his bet. However, if he does so, he can only receive one additional card. Those plays with the box holder must follow him and double their bets.

Splitting

If the first two cards of a box holder are a pair, e.g. two fours or two queens, then he may split these cards. Which means that both cards are then played as separate hands. In this case, he must duplicate his bet so that the same amount as the original bet is now bet on each card. A box holder who splits a pair of aces can only receive one additional card on each ace. And if that second card is a ten or a court card, the combination merely counts as a straight 21 and not as a Black Jack.

Insurance:

Players can insure against the dealer getting a Black Jack, if the dealer's first card is an ace or a 10. The player puts an additional amount - equal from half to his bet - on the so called insurance line. If the dealer gets the Black Jack, then the player is paid out twice the insurance. If the dealer does not get a Black Jack, then the player loses his insurance money.

The inspector solves all disagreements and his decision is final.
